Datsuncog Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I'm going to put a placeholder here for when I finally manage to snap one (or both) of the Proton Impian taxis operating in Belfast... came out of the train station this morning, the metallic beige one was stopped at the lights outside. By the time I fumbled my gloves off and persuaded the phone's camera to open, it was away again... they've been giving me the runaround for nearly two years now. Best I ever managed was an out of focus snap of the blue one's back quarter panel last summer. Uncle Jimmy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want to put a third one back on the road, there's another that's been lying around near me. They'll have to trailer it back over the water, though.

They'll have to trailer it back over the water, though. Not this one, perchance? Might be worth it, for serious shite points... However, I shall pass that information on to CrustyShite Cabs Ltd, or whoever is mad/stingey enough to be running these... can't be any less than ten years old now, so they're fortunate NI has no age ceilings on its taxis (see also - the heroically battered wob-filled, Nissan-engined FX4s on N and P-prefix plates still plying for trade outside the City Hall in Belfast, with the vinyl advertising wraps seemingly the only thing holding them together).

SiC Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Saw this on the walk to my new garage. Paintwork was pretty scruffy. Also a lot smaller car than I expected, considering they're supposed to be a big vehicle (for the time). davocano, RobT, mercrocker and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous user Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Will it fit in your new garage, did you put a card under the wiper? SiC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Funnily enough, after looking at one in person, I didn't like it as much as I thought. Surprised myself. I'd much prefer a Dolomite. Supposed to have been looking at some today but aborted it as wasn't feeling the best over the last few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lesapandre Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 S. London last few days...LDV and Dodge - both in use - the owner of the Dodge was doing building work nearby. Couple of railway engine shots too on the London Bridge -Croydon line these were running a maintenance train I think.

Ghosty Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Shiter car?I think that’s the late oldford’s. If so it’s now owned by a girl that posted on here briefly that also has two Cortinas.

neil1971 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 A couple from the Southend area, I know we have a few other local shiters who will probably know what's under the cover, as it's still there but now uncovered, any one else recognise it (I hope it's the same car anyway!). Was going to get a proper photo but an elderly lady was coming out of the house and I didn't want to cause alarm. catsinthewelder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
